    The Gap and Audrey Hepburn...

    I guess if we think really hard we'd recall some songs used in commercials that just didn't fly. I can't think of any at the moment but I know I've made statements to the effect of "Knights in White Satin does go with that!"lol

    Is Knowledge Power?

    Yeah Linc I think knowledge is power only when it is properly applied. I know lots of stuff on esoteric subjects that's no good to anyone mostly so that proves it:) Werhner von Braun figured out the formula for getting to space and the moon in the 30s and 40s. Had he not used that...

    Is youth around the corner?

    It's not the aging it's the medical problems associated with it. Unfortunately I know nobody in my age group that doesn't suffer some sort of medical problems that limits our ability to function normally. I think this is kinda like the old Billy Crystal on SNL doing Fernando Lamas "You look...

    Boredom: A plague upon us

    When I was bored, such as the many doctor appointments I used to take my Mom to and sitting in the waiting rooms, I always got internal. When I have time on my hands such as the waiting scenerio I look within to actually think. Yep. As crazy as it sounds I can entertain myself by mentally...

    Buying A Digital Camera? Here's Help.

    One thing I've found is that unless you plan to do quite a bit of zooming in and cropping segments of huge images you can get along fine with less megapixels. And that goes for image size too. You don't need to size your images at 2500 X 1800 for "snapshots." 4.0 megapixels is adequate for...

    The Gap and Audrey Hepburn...

    There was a time not long ago when TV commercials used unknown singers/musicians to make copies of hit tunes because acquiring the rights for use of an original was prohibitively expensive. Some artists whined about how using their music in the context of selling something was unsavory somehow...

    Show us your vehicles

    Recently had the winshield replaced on my 96 Eldo and the guy told me on old cars they make a pattern and cut out the needed glass since its obviously doesn't exist in stock anymore. On other applications the glass is custom cut then specially curved to fit. THAT is what makes its expensive:o

    40s' style popularity

    Yeah Baron if you're short and stocky there isn't much magic that can be done by wearing a single breasted coat, huh? I guess as long as its not horizontally striped. A frined of mine is 5'6" and I think he looks great in double breasted- better than a modern cut suit....but....[huh]

    My Mom's side of the family id German. Probably come in last quarter of 1800s. Dad's side was 2 brothers that came through Ireland but they think they may have originated in Germany. They got here in early 1700s and owned the land that Chatanooga stands on today. Obviously they didn't keep...

    The Gap and Audrey Hepburn...

    Daisy- if they would have used the Johnny Cash original the commercial might have "flown," but the half-baked version sung by nobodys poor rendition is weak to say the least.:o

    Vision of the future?-by Snrbfshn 9/28/05

    Hey Mike ole dude, the problem with the internet is the anonymity of it all. It emboldens some people to just be hateful. The Lounge is more mellow with very little of people with attitudes. And thankfully they've just now banned political discussion. All I've seen elsewhere is banal...

    Do you get mad when your outbid

    If I am outbid I may say "drat!" but sure don't dwell on it. There'll always be another of whatever item it is you just lost anyway. I always have a maximum amount I decide an item is worth and don't go over. I watched some vintage auto paraphenalia go for $36 when I paid $15 for the same...

    What size are you?

    6 7/8ths- 7 and I took a chance on a cheap straw 6 3/4 and it is OK but tight. Also one 7 can be tight while another is almost loose. I have 3 size 7s that all fit differently!!

    WARNING

    Cripes! I only deal with those who take Pay Pal and have no less that 98.5% rating and I read the remark details. I guess Ebay is simply getting overexposed like everything else in society today.

    Funeral wear

    I just figure as for proper attire at any event- when in doubt don't. You probably have a good 6th sense about whether someone will be offended by your dress and you should follow your hunch.[huh]
